I am Dania Alexis, a Maryland based visual artist and photographer. I specialize in documenting and tender candid moments.

Documentary

My favorite way to capture each person is through candid photography. The subtle glances, tiny smiles --these minor gestures that reveal so much.

PortraitS

Capturing the spirit and essence of each person I photograph is what comes most natural to me.
